Across The Line

In this desertIn darknessLying with the gun across his chestPretendingHe's heartlessAs the fire flashes in the skyHe was fragileAnd frozenWhen the bullet took away his friendAnd now he's somehowMore broken

He's pulling his weapon to his sideLoading it full of his goodbyesHolding an enemy across the lineHe's pulling his weapon to his sideLoading it full of his goodbyesHolding an enemy across the line

SweatingAnd shakingLying with her hands across her chestShe wakes withHer cravingsAs the fire flashes in her eyeShe was fragileAnd frozenWhen the needle took away her friendAnd now she's somehowMore broken

She's pulling her weapon to her sideLoading it full of her goodbyesHolding an enemy across the lineShe's pulling her weapon to her sideLoading it full of her goodbyesHolding an enemy across the line
